John, a male chauvinist pig, cannot stop gawking at beautiful women.
That is, until Beth cuts out his eyes with a spoon, rendering him blind.

This Life

Australia - 9 min. – Super short

Directed by Sarah Spillane

Date completed: August 2008

Based loosely on the Virginia Tech Massacre, the film illustrates the demise of humanity and the helplessness of society in the face of tragedy.

Believing the answers to many of life’s questions lay somewhere in the world, a young traveler backpacks his way across the globe. He encounters friendship, love and a confusing washing system in southern France.

In the near future, young Gaia’s dreams are shattered by the evil people who populate the city. Her grandfather tries to distract her by using her imagination. He creates for her, a fantastic place to hide from reality, a reality in which the oil reserves are almost finished and in which plastic has become a valuable material.

A short parody of the film Cloverfield. Told entirely from a first person perspective it follows a group of young adults through the streets of New York City as they struggle to survive a monster attack.
